Aaron Taylor-Johnson may have been offered the role of James Bond, and you better believe people have opinions
Mar 20, 2024
After fifteen years (and across five films in the series), our most recent James Bond, Daniel Craig, officially stepped down from the role in 2021, and rumors have been flying over who will replace him ever since. From Idris Elba to Tom Hardy to Regé-Jean Page, there have been countless actors rumored to be considered for the role over the last three years. Given the role’s iconography, there have also been countless fan votes for who should be our next Bond, with many fans even hoping to see a woman become 007 for the first time. Actresses who’d been campaigned for by fans of the franchise include Lashana Lynch, Hayley Atwell, and Lupita Nyong’o. However, full chaos ensued this week when news dropped of an alleged official offer being made to actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson: https://twitter.com/FilmUpdates/status/1770045187168854460 The rumor of his official offer originated in The Sun, with reports from a source close to the situation saying, “The formal offer is on the table and they are waiting to hear back.” https://www.tiktok.com/@thesun/video/7348045535514742048?lang=en The 33-year-old actor is best known for his roles in Kick-Ass, Avengers: Age of Ultron, and Bullet Train, thus Aaron's no stranger to action stardom and seems like a natural choice for the part. He was also one of the many actors originally rumored to be attached to the role as early as 2021. However, in a true case of “easy come easy go,” it was announced shortly after the initial rumor was leaked that these were, indeed, just rumors: https://twitter.com/FilmUpdates/status/1770183045984718914 But that didn’t stop the internet from having every possible reaction to the casting before the news was rescinded—and the reception was mostly positive, with many excited to see a younger actor possibly stepping up to the 007 challenge! Here are just a few of the most intense feelings shared: https://twitter.com/saintpattinson/status/1770054690421739845 https://twitter.com/brotherskeleton/status/1770139249284628519 https://twitter.com/Rihanatsona/status/1770049268570599546 https://twitter.com/Tessicat/status/1770062105707733357 https://twitter.com/ULTRAGLOSS/status/1770469095135441046 https://twitter.com/aruzaizit/status/1770050487129157986 Unfortunately, it looks like we’ll have to wait a little longer to find out for sure who our next James Bond will actually be, but needless to say: if Aaron wants the role, the fans appear to be behind him!

Star Wars Director Says It's About Time A Woman Makes A Star Wars Movie
Jan 02, 2024
Oscar-winning documentary filmmaker Sharmeed Obaid-Chinoy is directing an upcoming Star Wars movie that brings back Daisy Ridley in the role of Rey. Obaid-Chinoy will become the first woman to direct a Star Wars film, dating back to the franchise's origins in the 1970s. Speaking about this, Obaid-Chinoy told CNN that she is "very thrilled" to make the movie and create something that is "very special.""We're in 2024 now, and I think it's about time we had a woman come forward to shape the story in a galaxy far, far away," she said.Obaid-Chinoy won Best Documentary, Short Subjects Academy Awards for Saving Face (2012) and A Girl in the River: The Price of Forgiveness (2015).In 2020, Lucasfilm boss Kathleen Kennedy told the BBC that a woman would eventually direct a Star Wars movie, saying that would "absolutely" happen, "without question." Victoria Mahoney was a second unit director on The Rise of Skywalker, but a woman has never claimed a top directing credit on a Star Wars movie.On the TV side of things, The Mandalorian has featured a number of female directors, including Deborah Chow and Bryce Dallas Howard. Chow went on to direct the Obi-Wan TV series, too.Another high-profile franchise that has never had a female director is James Bond. Producer Barbara Broccoli and Skyfall director Sam Mendes have both said they want to see a woman direct a future 007 film.As for Obaid-Chinoy's Star Wars movie, little is known about it apart from the fact that Ridley will come back to play Rey. It is expected that this film will be the first of the three new Star Wars films to come to theaters, possibly releasing in December 2025.According to a report, Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight is writing the Rey movie, taking over for Damon Lindelof and Justin Britt-Gibson.
